My family and I are planning to build an outdoor basketball court in our backyard. It won't be full size, aprox 40'x30' not sure exactly how much room we have, need to remeasure it again.
Edit: We are not expecting to add value to our house and it might even make it harder to sell the house in the future, but this is for our enjoyment only. Worst comes to worst we take off the rim when we move, which is $2500 alone.
I only know of one company that sells and installs these courts which is FlexCourtCanada. Their hoop alone is aprox $2500, but great quality, and they charge aprox $2.50 per square feet. I don't have an exact quote from them yet, but probably will cost us between $5000 to $7000.
So I was wondering anyone here has a court in their backyard or played on something similar, is it worth the price? Any advice will help. Flexcourt claims they build the NBA 3 on 3 courts each year, and their courts come with 15 years warranty.
It might look something like this, except we won't have that much room around the court, will be very tight space

Edit1:
Remeasured again today, seems like we have a lot less room than I originally thought, but it looks like we can move our fence at least 4' towards the road and 7' on the left side since it's a corner lot and by leveling it to the pool surface we should have close to 30' from the rim and 30'+ horizontally.
Option #1 = wider court, will work well if the court is leveled with the pool surface to give us aprox 10-12' more room which is flat enough that you can dribble the ball without any problems.
Option #2 = very narrow, about 20' but you can make the court 30"+ long
if the ball rolls off the drive way, you'll have to sprint as fast as you can or you'll end up walking 1km to get the ball and lots of cars.
